I'd like to think it's the influence of the Prince Charming disney-thing mixed with the insatiable need for women to be in control. They want to be able to say that they took a guy, and like moulding clay, transformed him from a useless lump into something better.
Which is why I laugh out loud when people call these wifebeaters 'alpha' males, all while she is driving his ass around because he has no car, shacking up with her because he has no job, etc. He can afford to beat her because he has no job to get fired from. Real alphas are successful in life, and are in control of the woman.
